Camaro ZL1 Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

Updated  5 sources

2024 starting MSRP

$72,100 – $78,100

The Camaro ZL1 is the top performance version of Chevrolet's Camaro. Chevrolet ended Camaro production after the 2024 model year, so a ZL1 is no longer a new-car purchase in the usual sense. Any search for its price covers what it cost when new and what buyers are paying for used cars now.

This guide separates the two and attaches a model year to each number. Sources do not always agree on a given car's starting price, so if you compare this page with another, check the model year, body style, and whether destination is included.

Camaro ZL1 original MSRP

Original MSRP is the manufacturer's suggested retail price for the model year. It does not include destination, the gas guzzler tax, taxes, or any dealer markup. The rows below cover the final model year, the 2024 ZL1.

2024 Camaro ZL1 coupe MSRP $72,100
2024 Camaro ZL1 convertible MSRP $78,100

The convertible costs more than the coupe, so the starting price for a ZL1 depends on the body style you choose.

Fees on top of the sticker

New cars carry charges beyond the starting price. For the 2024 model year, two apply to the ZL1.

Fees and options

Item Price
2024 Camaro destination charge $1,595
2024 Camaro ZL1 gas guzzler tax $1,700

The gas guzzler tax is a federal charge on vehicles with low fuel economy, and the buyer pays it. Destination is charged by the manufacturer for delivering the car to the dealer. Sales tax, title, registration, and documentation fees depend on your state and are not included in any figure on this page.

How much is a used ZL1 worth?

The used market sets what most buyers pay now. The rows below are individual sales on Bring a Trailer, an online auction site. Each is one result for a specific car on a specific day. They are not averages.

Auction and resale

Item Price
2024 Camaro ZL1, 409 miles (BaT) $91,500
2023 Camaro ZL1 convertible, 4 miles (BaT) $82,500
2020 Camaro ZL1 1LE (BaT) $71,000
2018 Camaro ZL1, 7k miles (BaT) $61,000

Sources: Bring a Trailer: 409-Mile 2024 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Coupe 6-Speed; Bring a Trailer: 4-Mile 2023 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Convertible; Bring a Trailer: 11k-Mile 2020 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE; Bring a Trailer: 7k-Mile 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

The results run in a clear line from newest to oldest. A 2024 coupe with 409 miles and a manual transmission sold for more than the 2024 coupe starting price. A nearly new 2023 convertible sold for more than the 2024 convertible's starting price. Older cars, such as the 2020 ZL1 1LE and the 2018 car with 7,000 miles, sold for less. Mileage, model year, and the 1LE package all show up in the results.

These are single sales, and similar cars may sell for more or less. Compare several recent completed sales for the year, body style, and mileage you want.

What affects the price of a ZL1

  • Model year. Late cars, and especially the final 2024 model year, draw their own following.
  • Mileage. Cars with only a few hundred miles have sold above their original price.
  • Body style. Convertibles and coupes started at different prices, and buyers value them differently.
  • Transmission. The manual car in the results above is a factor many enthusiasts look for.
  • Package. The 1LE track package changes what a car is worth to the right buyer.
  • Condition and history. Accident history, modifications, and service records matter.

What to check before buying a used ZL1

A car with this much performance deserves a careful inspection. Start with a vehicle history report to look for accidents and title issues. Ask for service records, and have an independent mechanic check brakes, tires, and signs of hard track use. Check that any remaining factory warranty transfers to you, and find out what it covers.

Insurance is worth pricing before you commit. Quotes for high-output cars vary by driver, age, and location, so ask your insurer about the specific VIN.

Is a ZL1 a good buy?

This page does not give investment advice. Auction results show what particular buyers paid on particular days, and they can fall as easily as they rise. Use recent completed sales for a matching car instead of relying on any single figure.
